Hi guys,
Just got myself a CH fighterstick in no small part due to the recommendations on this forum.
I absolutely love the fighterstick, it's so smooth I can' tbelive it after my traumatising experience with the X52Pro.
But here's the thing, how do I get it to work prperly with the saitek X52pro throthle and pedals? I can't get IL2 to recognize anything but the fighterstick.
I can assign the throtle axis and rotary in the Hotas setup, including buttons so that helps. I can aslo assign the saitek rudder but I get a lot of false input when playing the game. the extra input is from the pedal I push forward when assigning the rudder in the game. So if I push the right rudder i drift right, left I drift left.
How have other mixed users fixed this problem?
I also have IL-joycontrol installed.
Thanks a lot for any hints or tips!!
Best,
Vaca
Following advice from some of the members here, I decided to order CH flight controls. About six weeks ago, I took delivery of the following:Originally posted by glvaca:

CH Fighterstick
CH Pro Throttle
CH Pro Pedals
Prior to this, the best flight control set I had owned was a Thrustmaster HOTAS Cougar stick and throttle, with Elite rudder pedals, which was excellent except that after only about one year the stick started to get sloppy and erratic.
The CH set is smooth, precise and very user-friendly, the stick in particular being extremely light (in stark contrast to the Cougar which was the 'heaviest' stick I had ever experienced - and I've tried quite a few). While the CH set may lack the weight and 'solidity' of the Cougar it certainly is a dream to use and time will tell regarding longevity. If the testimony of others here is anything to go by, I should be able to expect long life from this gear.
The Cougar is back in its box. I haven't yet decided what to do with it.![]()
Can't say I've ever tried one of those but then the idea of FFB never appealed to me either.Originally posted by Bearcat99:
The MSFFB2 is the best joystick ever made. Bar none. I still have my original one from 2001 and it still works.. My son uses it. Not only that.. the solenoids in that stick do things no spring can do.
